An anti-phishing feature hyped by Apple marketers has gone AWOL from the iPhone, according to two independent researchers who say the feature simply does not work.
Apple rolled out the feature in iPhone OS 3.0 for the device and once again called attention to it in Wednesday's update to the iPhone operating system. The feature …

Apple products. They just work.

Bah!

Doubting fools! The iPhone is democracy made manifest in the palm of your hand! It's all that stands between you and communism, publicly funded health care and nuke-totin' whales! Buy one now! Buy two!

I have an iPod touch 2G and love it. I always browse porn with is while at work on the wireless here to give the powers that be something interesting to read in the firewall logs. And I will say that the browser is the best out there hands down.

Now I personally do hate Apple for the way they market and act with their products but the browser is very very nice.

Now if only they wouldnt be so monopolistic about the rest of their business.

/AC because I dont need the bosses seeing this and figuring out where all the porn is coming from :)

ME!

Like the AC at 2201, I use my CrackBerry to get round blocked sites at work, and for a fair bit of "travel-browsing", or for things that I want to know NOW (eg watching a film - who's that bloke on there I'm sure he was in that other film what's his name now.... etc).

Fingers in the way aren't a problem as I use a Curve with a QWERTY rather than a Storm or similar touch-screen, as not being able to see the screen due to opaque fingers would irritate me (and was the main reason for going for a Curve). Oh, and squinting is sorted by that handy zoom feature...

Sorry, perhaps i'm addressing the wrong demographic here. I've honestly tried it myself but that's how I feel about anything that gives more scrolling, zooming, and expensive bandwidth usage than actual value. But as with all things, horses for (personal?) courses.
